Bill, you are basically correct.
When you highlight a medication, the MOST RECENT refilled quantity is listed along with the MOST RECENT number of refills granted on that prescription.

The dates refilled gives you only that information, not how many number of tabs/refills were granted on those past refills.

If you need to track controlled substances, consider this:
Make an Excel file (I have one that I use and would be happy to email to you), and import that Excel file into those charts that you are tracking refills. Each time you write the controlled substance, you can either go to the Rx Writer and enter as a refill or go to your Imported Files tab and enter it there.

I find it very quick and painless to use the Excel files because you can simply highlight the last refill information, copy then paste to the entry line below, enter the date, click save and you are done.

Message me if you want to see my Excel file, or email me.
